Car tax rates 2022: How much you’ll pay is going up

Vehicle Excise Duty, also known as car tax, will be increasing next Spring. Back in October, Chancellor Rishi Sunak unveiled his Autumn Budget plans in an address to the House of Commons, including a planned increase on Vehicle Excise Duty.

The increase in Vehicle Excise Duty – also known as car tax – will come into force from April 2022.

The amount your car tax is rising depends on the emissions your vehicle produces; the more emissions your car produces the more you will pay.

The Autumn Budget said VED would increase in line with the Retail Price Index which is typically used as a measure of inflation.

Here’s the full list of changes to car tax for 2022.
